Abstract:
Early Infant Diagnosis (EID) is the practice of testing babies for the HIV virus within the first 4–6 weeks of life or at the earliest opportunity thereafter. In order to correctly inform caregivers the HIV status of their infants, and link HIV-infected infants to care and treatment, a cascade of events must successfully occur. This cascade of events involves early detection, and retention into care and treatment protocols.
